I have questions.
Spyware Trouble = 4.7 million cd's recalled * $100,000, however is this lawsuit only for Texas?
Does this lawsuit include the possible civil suit or copyright infringement suits?
If not, then once everythingâs said and done this could set Sony back hundreds of millions of dollars, and I'm not including legal fees or possible artist fees resulting from a breech of contract on Sony's part in regards to the free downloadable songs they are offering on their website of the tainted CD's.
It's really a shame this had to happen the way it did. I regard Sony products pretty highly in my household and would never normally hesitate to buy a Sony product over another name-brand, but I have found myself second guessing products as of late, software specifically. As someone else already stated however, I'm just curious how everything will pan out in the end. It really is a shame, but when you dance with the piper you'll eventually have to pay him and his price can be rather steep :whistling: .
